In anticipation of the release of Ghost in the Shell next month, several new character posters for the upcoming live-action film have been revealed.

See Scarlett Johansson's The Major, Pilou Asbæk's Batou, Chin Han's Togusa, Yutaka Izumihara's Saito, Lasarus Ratuere's Ishikawa, Tawanda Manyimo's Borma, Takeshi Kitano's Aramaki and Danusia Samal's Ladriya in the gallery below.

Rupert Sanders directed the live-action adaptation, which draws from not only Mamoru Oshii's iconic 1995 animated film, but all of Ghost in the Shell's pre-existing source material. According to executive producer Michael Costigan, the film will serve as "a portal into this universe."

Ghost in the Shell opens in theaters on March 31, 2017. In the meantime, check out the movie's second trailer below, as well as this detailed look at how the live-action film recreated the iconic shelling sequence from Oshii's original anime movie.
